Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency has recently received increasing attention as a significant biomarker to predict the treatment effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors for various malignant neoplasms. To evaluate MMR status, we analyzed the microsatellite instability (MSI) of lung adenocarcinomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Frozen tissues of lung adenocarcinoma and corresponding normal lung were...
